What happens when you, as root, execute:

x2golistsessions_root

Do you see the "hung" sessions of your users?

What happens when you terminate them using

(again, as root, and preferably not in an X2Go session yourself)

x2goterminate-session <sessionid>

(<sessionid> is what you see in the second output column of
x2golistsessions_root)

Does it work for them afterwards?

What happens when you set up a separate test server with X2Go on it, can
they connect to that one, or are they having issues with it as well?

There are two things I would like to mention, due to your e-mail signature:

First, a warning:
X2Go does have options for image compression, like using JPG and/or PNG.
Not all image compression algorithms are lossless, and thus there may be
artifacts in the images (i.e. the image displayed through X2Go may look
slightly different than what it would look like on a regular X-Server
screen), depending on which algorithm and which compression level you
choose. Is that something you're aware of?

If you're using fMRI/X-Ray/Mammography/... images displayed through X2Go
for clinical purposes (deciding whether a certain patient requires a
surgery etc.), you should absolutely make sure that you're using a
lossless compression or no compression at all, or else you might be
seeing things that aren't actually there, or missing things that are there.

Second, a shameless plug advertising our commercial services:
<shameless plug>
X2Go also has a commercial side, where various companies - including my
own - offer support contracts with guaranteed response times as well as
consultancy and paid-for development work if someone wants to see a bug
fixed or a new feature added in a certain time frame. What makes my
company special is, IMHO:

1) I'm the current X2Go Project/Community Coordinator, so the
development lead and the developers tend to listen to me.
2) As far as I know, we are the only company providing X2Go support that
isn't a one-man-show.
3) We sub-contract other developers from the X2Go community on demand,
so you only have one person you need to talk to - me - and you will only
receive one invoice, even if the task involved several freelance or
part-time X2Go developers.

Our hourly rate for consultancy work and fixing issues outside of a
support contract is 110 EUR. With a support contract, you get guaranteed
response times (starting at 400 EUR/month for 24h response time during
business hours in the CET/CEST time zone from Monday to Friday, German
holidays excluded) and lower hourly rates if you buy a certain amount of
hours in advance.
</shameless plug>
